IPOH: The Sessions Court here set March 3 for the decision on the application by the defence for a stay of proceedings in the rape case involving Perak exco Paul Yong Choo Kiong pending the outcome of the appeal for the case to be transferred to the High Court.
“The accused must be present on the date and there must be written submissions from both parties. I do not want any more extensions or excuses,” she said. On Dec 5 last year, Norashima set the date of hearing in the case against Yong, who is also Tronoh state assemblyman, for Feb 10 to 14. On Aug 23 last year, Yong, who is also Perak Housing, Local Government, Public Transport, Non-Muslim Affairs and New Villages Committee chairman, pleaded not guilty at the Sessions Court to raping an Indonesian maid at a house in Meru Desa Park, between 8.15pm and 9.15pm on July 7, 2019.
